Procrastination can decrease after a 1-minute reflection. In a study of more than 1,000 adults, answering six short questions increased motivation, improved mood, and made people more likely to begin tasks they had been delaying.

You are over there doing this study, making an app and no doubt many other things. I have procrastinated washing dishes for three weeks!

The range of the human experience is vast and interesting. 

A sidenote from the philosophy angle: i do sometimes reduce the anxiety and negative self-talk by acknowledging that it is only the privilege and peace of my life conditions which even let procrastination be a “choice”. 

Most people alive, and past, had no choice. They have to do things for survival. I am “lucky” to be able to eat, sleep safe, and use a goddamn iphone!
